"No one was arrested because all those involved were men of God," he said.

How nice. A get out of jail free card. If anything, being a "man of God" and involved in a fight should automatically land you in jail, because as a "man of God" you're supposed to be held to higher standards. But maybe they're just men of the Old Testament God who constantly fought & slaughtered people.

Wait, so priests are above the law now? There is truly no hope for that area.

Seriously, why must any one Christian group own the Church of the Nativity? If it's one of the holiest sites in Christianity, that means, logically, that it should be open to all Christians. Can't they just cooperate, or at least have a rotating schedule, for crying out loud?!

"'No one was arrested because all those involved were men of God,' he said."

And?

"Previous clashes between the denominations which share the administration of the church have been sparked by perceived encroachments on one group's territory by another."

If you were really "men of God" then you'd know what you're supposed to do. Read your Old Testament. There's fairly detailed instructions about invading territory held by heathens, wiping them out, and claiming it for your own.
